I used ambien for quite awhile on and off. I never experienced the sleep walking or maybe I dont remember! lol!
My problem was, if I used it say for 3-4 nights, then i stop, I was awake all night!
So I switched to Lunesta, no problem like Ambian, but I dont sleep as long!

What's the generic name of lunesta?
Being a firefighter and working 24 hr shifts has screwed up my sleep beyond belief. I have tried em all. Started off with melatonin, benadryl ( too groggy ), cutting out caffeine in the afternon etc etc. Tried valerian root too. In th pharm world I have tried lunesta (hated the metallic taste in the mouth), restoril,sonata and regular ambien. I have been on ambien cr for a year. It works the best. It is controlled release with keeps me sleeping all night through. I take it about three nights a week. I have done some funny stuff on it. Went from a deep sleep to doing situps and screaming to sleep eating. I'd wake up and say damn who destroyed the oreos. I hate taking prescriptions but my sleep will be messed up for another 15 years.
They don't sell regular Ambien here ... I doubt I'll ever find Ambien CR :(
Thanks for the info, groverman.
